NASA and Boeing said Nov. 24 they will fly Starliner’s next mission to the International Space Station without astronauts, conducting a cargo-only test no earlier than April after thruster and other issues on the 2024 crewed flight. NASA also cut Starliner’s planned flights from six to four; if the cargo test succeeds, the remaining three flights would handle crew rotations before the ISS is retired in 2030.
